Description

Oxford International Junior Programmes offers a range of summertime ESL programmes at carefully chosen centres in the UK, Canada, and the US.

Our programmes aim to create a study experience of educational value, of cultural interest, and, of course, full of fun and memories to take home.

Our Vancouver summer program, running 18th June - 13th August, 2023, is based at the University of British Columbia campus, where students receive a combination of 15 hours English language tuition per week and a comprehensive programme of activities and excursions.

The activity programme will include daytime and evening activities as well as half-day and full-day excursions to attractions and places of cultural interest.

We are currently looking for staff for contracts of various length from late June to mid-August.


Responsibilities and Duties


The Activity Leader plays a key role in our Junior Programme, and will lead groups of students on trips and activities in a safe, fun, and responsible manner.

More than a chaperone, Activity Leaders engage with students to spur discussion (in English), answer questions, and act as a positive role model.

Activity leaders may also be responsible for planning, organizing, and implementing on-site activities that are inspiring, dynamic, and most importantly - fun
